PIRATES BEATEN BY THE

CUBS.

SCORE OF 54 IN ONLY GAME OF THE DAY,

Chicago, April 17-In the only game played in the major leagues to-day, the Chicago Cubs défented the Pittsburg Pirates by 5 to 4. At Cincinnati, rain made it impos sible for the Rods and the St. Louis Cardinals to play and no other con- testa had been arranged in either E. the American or National League.

The game here was a free hitting affair. The Buccaneers nicked the Cup twirlors for 13 hits, but they were kept well scattered. The Cubs, on the nther hand, bunched nine hita, to score five tallies and emerge victorious by one up on the Piraten, “A__Pittsburg error did much to Teontribute to the Chicago victory. The Cubs played errorless baseball.
